I am think about getting a powder measure I had the redding match grade 3br powder measure
at one time,how does the rcbs competition powder measure compare?
 
I have been using the RCBS Uni-Flow's for years and if I hadn't of came a crossed a Pawesome deal on a Br-30 I would of
said RCBS forever!! but I really like my BR-30's, after I tested and used the BR-30, it became 30's!
One thing you might look at are the Harrell P.M., from what I have read and been told, the Big Boys use the Harrell hands down.
Just my 2 cents.

Measure accuracy has to do with the powder you use, and technique. I had a Harrells for years, and once I got the technique, I could throw short grain powders to the tenth. I have not used the RCBS, but with the powders I use, I'd think money is better spent on the Chargemaster, which I have now. J
 
After testing many expensive powder measures, I now use a $20 Lee and it is just as accurate as the Harrell's or Redding or ...>place name here< If you want long range accuracy, you will need to weigh powder with an accurate scale. Over the course of 100 throws, every powder thrower I've used will vary +-.50 grains or more.
